The Post Office Building
The project of the architect Miguel Angel Navarrese, from Zaragoza. Its construction was carried out between 1915 and 1922.
Dominant eclecticism of the official architecture
Two thirds of a compact block, with two curved bevels finished off by domes
Access emphasized by a salient body, framed with double Ionic columns, and a semicircular arch
In the superior part, it connects with the double-height hall and covered with a dome of elliptic glazing base, which is the nucleus around which the rest of the building is developed.
Its monumental effect is enhanced by the presence of different sculptural groups with symbols of the communications
The XAPA house
Constituted by 8 buildings between party walls and interior illuminating patios
The project belongs to the architects Antonio Martorel Trilles, Emilio Ferrer Gisber and Carlos Carbonell Panella, 1906-1911
The organization of the balconies determines a horizontal composition
The group is finished off by a serpentine element of floral decoration that reinforces its unit and its horizontality
The lobbies and the stairways have different interior treatments, alternating the lining between ceramic and marble
Valencia City Hall
Academicist style.with Neo-Baroque elements on the main doors
Constituted by two unified bodies: The old Escuelas del Arzobispo Mayoral, “Casa de la Enseñanza"
Architects Francisco de Mora y Berenguer and Carlos Carbonell Pañella
